Seminar Title	Industry clockspeed and manufacturing inventory
Abstract	Measuring the rate of industry evolution, industry clockspeed is believed to have profound implications for supply chain design and strategy. However, there is little empirical research on the implications of industry clockspeed on inventory. Using a panel dataset collected from U.S. Census on all manufacturing industries over 1997-2008, this research investigates how manufacturing inventories at different stages are associated with industry clockspeed and other characteristics, including value added and capital investment.
